richie foran
He's certainly improved from the 1st half of the season where he was very poor both performance wise and in the captaincy. Looks like he's got his mojo back, hopefully it stays that way as even if he became the worst player in the SPL TB wouldn't drop him anyway.

Free entry to TCS
My wife works in a school and is a season ticket holder, I asked her yesterday about this and she was totally unaware. Quite possible that while the information may have gone to headquarters or headteachers the 'people on the ground' may not have been made aware. Ultimately it will be those who have to organise and distribute the tickets. The Highland Council is not renowned for its communication!

ICT new home shirt 2012-14
Yeah, I'll not be buying another Errea one, their quality is woeful for something that is supposed to be suitable for the rigors of a football game and the sizes bizarre. Feel cheap plus pulled threads and bobbling after just wearing 2/3 times, for £40 no thanks. When I complained I was told it was my fault somehow, strange then that I have Scotland strips from when I was in secondary school and they still hold up fine 15 years later!!

They are top of the League below.
Explain. please. Al give you an example of what im on about. The last time i went to see u2 play in glasgow, the gig was not a sell out. Why? because there was another big draw on that same night in the same city, in the shape of Celtic Vs Arsenal in the Champs League qualifier. Thing is tho, the attendance was hit in that game also...as u2 were in town. had there not been the distraction of the football on...then u2 wouldnt have any competiton that night for income and the same is true for the fooball Point being....when ICT are in the SPL on their own, they are the biggest draw and focus in the area. Bring another equally as appealing lure into the frame, ICT are not as tasty a lure as once they were. Money from advertising, sponsorship, backing from the business community will now be more split than ever. Still struggling to comprehend??....ok...think whats going to happen to Tesco when Asda comes to town! I take your point regarding sponsorship and advertising and this MAY take a slight dip. But I really don't see large amounts of ICT fans suddenly deciding to support RC and going over the bridge.

Thomas Piermayr
Hardly brand new information but he's (Piermayr) absolutely correct. I've no idea why anybody would be choking over anything Dougal. People are not going to read it and think- LOTS OF PEOPLE WHO ARE FROM OUTSIDE GLASGOW IN OLD FIRM SUPPORT SHOCKER! EDIT- to clarify who I thought was correct.

The Scottish Football Debate
Computer games have been the scapegoat for a raft of problems from school shootings to poor school grades to obesity and now apparenty the demise of the Scottish game, I'm sure someone on here even mentioned they might be one of the reasons more children/young people don't attend at TCS. In any event computer games are no different to watching a tv show or a DVD/BR in that they have people stuck on the sofa. I love gaming but everything in moderation (except Mass Effect 3 this week!) If parents have a real concern that their child if spending to much time indoors then it is up to them to get them off the laptop, tv, xbox or whatever, if they don't then quite frankly that's just lazy parenting. I believe there are plenty of things potentially stopping young people going out and playing football with the possibility of becoming (good) players and computer games may be a tiny part of it but no more. Other examples could be fear of child getting hurt in some way where the parent can't see them, alcohol, general unhealthy lifestyle, poor or no support/training, lack of facilities, cost; - the list goes on.

Butcher OUT?
I know, how dare people question the management team or players you'd think they helped pay their wages or something! If only everyone on CTO could just write positive things all day everyday for a whole season we'd be in Europe no problem. Seriously though, so people are not allowed to have an opinion on the management of ICT in a forum for err ICT better just shut the site down now then guys.

Muirfield investment?
10K could be put aside for a safe standing area perhaps?

Butcher OUT?
I agree that it's not all Butcher's fault and the players have to shoulder some of the responsibility for their motivation and drive. I've only been at home games this season but the heads do seem to go down to easily for my liking. That said Butcher did bring in most of these players did he not? However it's all a moot point anyway - hes still got over 2 years on his contract and who could/would come in thats better anyway? Alex although I agree with most of your post I honestly don't think we have a team of 'very good players' I'd say reasonable with perhaps a couple of very good but in reality that's it (and it's all we can afford really). That is why it is so important that we have a team of players who give that 110% and battle till the final whistle IMO.

A welcome for Rangers next week
Absolutely gutted Im gonna miss this game :(

Lost money from Rangers game
Proof of purchase is all you would need to get your car if it had been paid for and not yet delivered. I don't believe that it would be that simple, when MFI went under thousands of people were left out of pocket by hundreds if not thousands and not re-imbursed unless they had used a credit card. In fact recently i bought my wife a voucher for a company that is now defunct, she never got that chance to use it and apparently that's essentialy tough and I have the voucher and reciept.

Lost money from Rangers game
If we did refuse entry to the away fans due to non-payment the dispute would surely be between the Rangers fans and Rangers FC in addition to ICTFC and Rangers FC. Not between the Rangers fans and ICTFC. To look at it another way with the car analogy- if I bought a Ford car from Arnold Clark and before it was delivered to me (and before Arnold Clark had paid Ford for it) and they went bust my dispute would be with Arnold Clark not Ford as they would simply say 'why should we give it to you as far as we are concerned it's not paid for'. Essentially the Rangers fans would be getting a service that isn't paid for. Bit of a moot point if the SPL covers the costs anyway mind!

Terrry and Chic.
Even if he gets MOM, scores a hat-trick,creates world peace and a cure for cancer. TB won't say that he got it wrong (IMO).

Caledonian Stadium will look second best
well theres no point in looking back your not gonna change anything and theres definatly no point in complaining about it If there's no point looking back why did you bring up RC's attendance at Hampden? Why analyse a game once it's finished? You're right it sure won't change anything but you can often learn from it for the future. Regardless, there were nearly 10,000 empty seats at Celtic Park yesterday when their team is on a great run and top of the league so it certainly isn't just us.

Caledonian Stadium will look second best
Looks rubbish. Who cares anyway, we'll prob only be there a couple of times (a season?) anyway.

Butcher for England Manager
Although I'm sure the England fans like TB very much from a personal standpoint and for what he did as a player. I would think that they, and the FA would consider him too inexperienced and lacking in management skills/track record from the higher echelons of the game to take on a job the with the expectations that come with being England manager. Perhaps as an assistant manager, but no more.
